(9h+3)(−h−1) porfavor ayudenme con esta pregunta.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

-9h² - 12h - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the FOIL method:

FOIL = First, Outside, Inside, Last

Multiply the terms together:

First: 9h * -h = -9h²

Outside: 9h * -1 = -9h

Inside: 3 * -h = -3h

Last: 3 * -1 = -3

Combine like terms: 9h² + (-9h - 3h) - 3

9h² - 12h - 3

-9h² - 12h - 3 is your answer.
